Priority | normal | Severity | minor | Reproducibility | always |
Status | closed | Resolution | not fixable | ||
Platform | x86_64 | OS | rockylinux | OS Version | 9.0 |
Summary | 0000267: Can't find xorg-x11-apps on any of the repos | ||||
Description | Running yum --showduplicates --enablerepo=\* list available xorg-x11-apps says No matching packages to list. (It also updates among others the CRB repo, which I had thought was where stuff from rocky8 PowerTools was supposed to be.) What has happened to this package ? (Red Hat staff seemed to think it still exists, but haven't yet responded to my saying I can't find it.) | ||||
Steps To Reproduce | See above | ||||
Additional Information | I've actually tried installing xorg-x11-apps-7.7-21.el8.x86_64 on my rocky 9.0 system (probably not a brilliant idea) and it installed fine and (to the limited extent that I've tried it) seems to work. | ||||

xorg-x11-apps doesn't exist for RHEL 9, and thus Rocky Linux 9. It was built in the beginnings of CentOS Stream 9's development as evidenced here: https://kojihub.stream.centos.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=3367 -- But in general xorg-x11-apps is a deprecated package.
